![]() Recently, we have seen many “pro” mathematics movements across the continent and the globe: For example, With Math I Can and The Global Math Project. ![]() … follows a natural progression with respect to mathematical sophistication. The “place value” model for multi-digit multiplication (which works left to right or right to left) can be represented visually using the “area” model of multiplication.Īs students move through the grades, the “area” model of multiplication becomes increasingly important. The mathematicians and education researchers who have helped classroom teachers to implement this straightforward computational procedure are eager to emphasize that their enthusiasm is due, in part, to their “eyes on the future” - focused on secondary and post-secondary mathematics.
